The occupational epidemiological studies of trichloroethylene (TCE) exposure and kidney cancer are reviewed. Seven occupational cohort studies, conducted in the U.S., Finland, and Sweden involving over 130,000 workers, do not report statistically increased risks of kidney cancer among TCE-exposed workers. These studies were based on well-defined cohorts and exposure assessments involving urine biomonitoring or some type of job exposure matrix. In contrast, two German studies reported eight- to eleven-fold increased risks for renal cancer among TCE-exposed workers. However, numerous methodological and analytical shortcomings severely limit any interpretation of the German studies. We conclude that the more reliable epidemiologic data do not support a causal relationship between kidney cancer and TCE exposure. |
